Another nice looking oldie. This is a Ford F5, built in 1953. On top there is a Geesink 20 metre ladder. It was in service with the Waalwijk Fire Brigade.

Marcel:

It looks so short - obviously suited to the narrow and cramped streets of its Fire Coverage Area.

What a contrast to the big American Tractor-Drawn Aerials.....

Great photo of a neat little rig - is that a portable Hose-Reel at the rear ??

Regards, from Canada,
